@MrGrahamMoore Mr Moore, I am a mathematician, writing a screenplay about a female mathematical genius. Thank you for your Medium article.
Ramanujan observed that 9 = 1 + 2x4 16 = 1 + 3x5 25 = 1 + 4x6, and that 3 = sqrt(9) 4 = sqrt(16) 5 = sqrt(25), etc, etc.

These observations were not new to him, of course. His genius was to see what they actually meant. To fashion them into art.

Ramanujan saw that these mundane facts fit together in a dazzling way. He saw that 3 = sqrt(1 + 2x4) is just a first step.
